Beer Advent: Days 11-14

Day 11
Two Hearted - Bells Brewing Company
ABV - 7.0%
















Down the Hall Bell's Two Hearted Ale!  What an all around excellent brew.  I have to say this is one of those beers that I've been familiar with for a long time and it really never gets old.  Great balance, great aroma, really everything you'd want in an IPA.  Plus, it's not so overpoweringly bitter as to chase any hop-averse drinkers away.  What do you think, a good gateway to IPAs? 


I also love the label.  It's so delightfully random.  As it turns out, the beer is named after the Two Hearted River in Michigan's upper peninsula.  So I guess that helps make sense of the fish.
